Anaheim Angels second baseman Adam Kennedy, who led the circuit in batting, slugging and on-base percentage, has been named Bank of America Presents the American League Player of the Week for the period ending August 29. Bank of America, the official bank of Major League Baseball, is the presenting sponsor of the American League and National League Player of the Week Awards, which reflect the bank's long-standing tradition of promoting and recognizing higher standards of accomplishment.

Kennedy led the AL with a .619 average, a .952 slugging percentage and a .640 on-base percentage last week. In six games, he went 13-for-21 with nine runs scored, 20 total bases, a double, two home runs and seven RBI. The 2002 AL Championship Series Most Valuable Player currently has a string of five consecutive multi-hit games, including a 4-for-4 day at Kansas City on Tuesday and Sunday's walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth versus Minnesota.

Tourneau, the world's largest watch store, is proud to award the Bank of America Presents the American League Player of the Week winner Adam Kennedy with a Tourneau luxury Swiss timepiece from its Safari collection.
